ROYAL MARBLE CHEESECAKE



Royal Marble Cheesecake image

I am posting this recipe at the request of another Zaar member. She had the recipe and had lost the cookbook it was in. It came out of the Pillsbury Bake-Off Cookbook in 1965. I will have to admit that I have never tried it, but she assured me that it was the best cheesecake that she had ever eaten. It does look yummy. Of course we all know there's no such thing as bad chocolate anything! LOL I'll have to admit that I guessed at the prep time and only put down the time the cheesecake is in the oven as passive work time. I did not list the time for cooling and chilling the cake.

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE CRUMB CRUST
2 1/4 c chocolate chip cookie crumbs (i used homemade)
3 Tbsp sugar
3-4 Tbsp butter, melted(use 4th tbs. if needed for moisture)
IRISH CREAM CHEESECAKE FILLING
4 pkg 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 1/4 c granulated sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
1/3 c irish cream liqueur
1 c sour cream , room temperature
1 box instant jello cheesecake pudding & pie filling
2/3 c nutella hazelnut spread ( i used generic version)
2 Tbsp vanilla bean paste or extract, divided
1 tsp amaretto extract
1 tsp coffee flavoring extract (or strong brewed coffee)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. You will need a 9 inch square or round spring form pan. Crush enough cookies to make 2 1/4 cups.
  • 2. Pour crumbs into a bowl add sugar and melted butter, then pour into spring form pan. Then press to bottom and about 1-2 inches up the sides of the pan. Place in preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, then remove from oven, set aside and allow to cool. LOWER OVEN TEMPERATURE TO 325 DEGREES F.
  • 3. These are the main flavorings for this cheesecake.
  • 4. Now add the softened cream cheese to a large bowl, & beat till creamy. Then add in the eggs one at a time and the pudding & pie filling, beating until well blended. Add the sour cream, and Irish Cream and beat just until blended & smooth.
  • 5. Remove at least 3 cups of the cheesecake mixture to a smaller bowl.To this mixture add the Nutella Hazelnut spread, 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Bean Paste or extract, and 1 teaspoon of coffee extract, blend together until thoroughly mixed. Set aside till needed. Use a medium size spoon in the smaller bowl.
  • 6. To the larger bowl add 1 Tablespoon of vanilla Bean Paste and 1 teaspoon amaretto extract, blend together till thoroughly mixed. Add a medium size spoon to the larger bowl, but keep it separate from the other bowl.
  • 7. Now using the bowl with the white cream cheese , alternate spoons of the white filling. Then fill in the gaps with the chocolate mixture.
  • 8. Repeat until you have alternated both colors into the spring form pan. Now using a butter knife carefully drag the knife through the cheesecake mixture, being extra careful not to touch the bottom or the sides of the cake pan. Top of cake should resemble something like this picture. Boil about 5 cups of water & set aside till needed. This is for the water bath for the cheese cake.
  • 9. Now cover the bottom of cheesecake pan with heavy duty foil making sure it goes up on sides of pan. I used three layers of foil. Wrap tightly around the bottom of pan. This prevents the water from seeping into bottom of crust during cooking.
  • 10. Now Using a larger pan with sides, that will allow you to sit the cheesecake pan inside. Add the cheesecake, then carefully pour the boiling water inside pan, then close oven door and allow cheesecake to cook for 50 minutes. NOW LOWER OVEN TEMPERATURE TO 300 DEGREES F. and CONTINUE BAKING FOR AN ADDITIONAL 30 MINUTES. After 30 minutes has elapsed, TURN OVEN OFF, but LEAVE CAKE IN OVEN FOR AN ADDITIONAL HOUR. Now remove from oven and allow to cool completely to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours, or preferably over night before serving.
  • 11. Slice and enjoy.

LOW CARB MARBLE CHEESECAKE



Low Carb Marble Cheesecake image

This recipe was given to me by a friend. I don't know where she got it. It's wonderful. I like the fact that you don't have to make a crustless cheesecake for it to be low carb. I put the splenda down as 3/4 to 1 cup because I tend to use a little less splenda because I don't like an overly sweet cheesecake. It's good either way. Bon Appetite!!

MARBLE CHEESECAKE



Marble Cheesecake image

This is my favorite cheesecake and what I make if I am really looking to indulge myself, my family, and my friends. You really need people with which to share this! The chocolate marbling through the vanilla is so pretty. A crustless cheesecake so it's gluten-free. From a famous mouse's cookbook but altered slightly from the original.

Provided by Kitchen Witch Steph

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 9-inch cheesecake, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon lemon flavoring
4 eggs, lightly beaten
3 egg yolks, lightly beaten
3/4 cup heavy cream (1/2 plus 1/4)
6 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted

Steps:

  • Beat cream cheese until smooth. (seriously, no lumps!)
  • Add sugar, vanilla, and lemon flavoring and mix well.
  • Slowly add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Add 1/2 cup heavy cream and blend until smooth.
  • Lightly grease and flour (can skip the flouring to make it gluten-free or use alternative) a 9-inch springform pan and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Remove 1 1/2 cups of cheese mixture to a small bowl and stir in the melted chocolate.
  • Add remaining 1/4 cup cream to remaining cheese mixture and pour into springform pan.
  • Add 1 1/2 cups of chocolate cheese mixture to pan in spoonfuls dotted around top of cake.
  • With tip of knife, run blade through cheesecake, swirling mixture together.

  • Reduce temperature to 325 degrees and cook an additional 40 to 50 minutes, until center of cheesecake is set.
  • Cool and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
  • Tips: It's generally done when there is only a 2-3 inch spot in the center that jiggles. Several small cracks is fine and often just he nature of the cheesecake but if you get a larger crack through the middle of it, then it is a sign that it has been over baked.
  • Also, if you cool the cheesecake too quickly you may get cracks. Let it cool on top of one of the stove burners with an inverted plate resting on top.

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 22

TOASTED HAZELNUT CRUST
3/4 c toasted hazelnuts, divided
1 1/2 c graham cracker crumbs
3 Tbsp granulated sugar
6 Tbsp melted butter
FRANGELICO CHEESECAKE FILLING
2 lb softened cream cheese (room temperature) [4-8oz. pkgs]
1 1/4 c granulated sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
1/3 c frangelico hazelnut liqueur
1 c sour cream (room temperature)
1 box sugar free instant jello cheesecake pudding & pie filling
1/3 c nutella hazelnut spread [i use a generic version]
1 tsp almond extract
1 Tbsp vanills bean paste ( or use vanilla extract)
CHEESECAKE TOPPING
1 box french vanilla instant pudding
1 c heavy whipping cream (or use 2% cold milk)
1/3 c sour cream
1 tsp frangelico liqueur
1/4 c reserved toasted hazelnuts
24 pieces hershey's hugs candy [approx] or your choice

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. You will need a 9 inch spring form pan round or square. Toast hazelnuts in shallow pan in preheated 350 degrees F. oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • 2. Remove from oven and place on a thick towel. Cover and allow to sweat a bit, about 10 minutes till cooled.
  • 3. After 10 minutes has elapsed, leave nuts covered and rub back and forth between the towel to remove most of the dark husk. Add nuts to a large zip lock bag and break up into small pieces with a mallet.
  • 4. Add the graham cracker Crumbs and melted butter in a medium bowl. Stir in 1/2 cup of the toasted nuts, reserving the remainder 1/4 cup as a garnish for the top, add sugar, and blend till crumbs are moist.
  • 5. Pour into spring form pan and press into bottom of pan, and about 2 inches up the sides of pan, till crust is smooth.
  • 6. Place in preheated 350 degrees F. oven and bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool till needed.
  • 7. After the crust has had time to cool, line the bottom with at least 3 layers of aluminum foil, bringing it up along the sides of the pan and wrapping it as tightly as possible. This is to prevent water from seeping into the bottom of the cheesecake pan. While it is cooking in a water bath.
  • 8. Now reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Fill a kettle or large pot with water, and allow it to come to a boil while you prepare the cheesecake. Add the 4 packs of softened cream cheese to a medium size bowl.
  • 9. Add Cheesecake pudding & pie filling to cream cheese along with sugar, & sour cream, and beat till blended.
  • 10. Add eggs, one at a time beating after each addition.
  • 11. Next add Frangelico Liqueur, Vanilla Bean Paste, & Almond Extract, & beat till blended.
  • 12. Now remove at least 2 1/2 - 3 cups of batter from larger bowl to a smaller bowl.
  • 13. Add the Hazel Nut Spread to the smaller bowl.
  • 14. Beat till mixture is blended together. I did not want equal parts of chocolate and white, because my husband does not like a lot of chocolate, so I wanted a milk chocolate color instead of a deep chocolate. But you can add more if you like.
  • 15. Now alternate the chocolate and white cheesecake mixture from each bowl using a separate spoon for each bowl, by dropping into the cooled graham cracker crust. I wanted more white than chocolate, with just a hint of the hazel nut spread. Smooth out top of cheese cake, then place cheesecake pan into a larger pan. Add enough boiling water to come up along the sides of the cheesecake pan. Then bake in preheated 325 degrees F. oven for 50 minutes.
  • 16. REDUCE TEMPERATURE TO 300 DEGREES f. AND CONTINUE TO COOK FOR AN ADDITIONAL 30 MINUTES.
  • 17. Now turn OVEN OFF, BUT LEAVE CHEESECAKE IN OVEN FOR AN ADDITIONAL HOUR. THEN REMOVE CHEESECAKE FROM OVEN AND COOL COMPLETELY ON A WIRE RACK. Then cover with saran wrap and & refrigerate & cool for 4-5 hours or preferably overnight.
